• Trailer Suspension Kit and 6 Inch Long Equalizers for Tandem Axles and Double Eye Springs
  Suspension kit # APT4 for tandem axles with double eye springs has 6-1/4 inch long equalizers so it is a possible option for you. Kit # AP233-H248 uses 5-3/4 inch long equalizers. But if you have to have equalizer # TREQ310 then the individual parts will have to be pieced together since there isn't a kit with that equalizer. If you go that route then you would also need: 8 of # 18-11GALV 14 of # 166081 1 of # H248 (or other hangers, see link)

• Changing Spring Hangers To Raise Or Lower A Trailer
  Yes. If you change no other components, the hanger length increase should directly correspond to the lift of the trailer. So, if you use a tandem axle kit like the Tandem-Axle Trailer Hangers for 1-3/4" Wide Double-Eye Springs - 3-1/4" Tall Front # H248, and each hanger is 1-1/2 inches longer than your current corresponding hangers, you will lift your trailer by 1-1/2 inches. This would work the same way for lowering a trailer.

Since this is the first time I have ever seen this problem I would lean strongly towards this being the issue. The diameter of your trailer axle will determine the size of the parts that...
